Chapter 506: Occupy half of the land of the Great Song Dynasty!

ps: To fill a bug in the previous chapter, Qiongzhou is not a road, but a state capital belonging to Guangnan West Road. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info just had a brain pump.

After Guangnan was pacified, Li Chu also visited Jinghu South Road alone.

Separately invited Deng Youxian, the transfer envoy, and Chen Qisong, the pacification envoy, and Li Chu directly had a showdown with the two at the banquet.

After learning that Liangzhejiang Road, Jiangnan East and West Road, Fujian Road, Guangnan East and West Road, and Hubei Road were all controlled by the Qilin Army, the two of them were shocked.

Although the imperial court had an order to appoint Li Xuan and Lu Junyi as the transfer envoys of the Guangnan East and West Road, Deng Youxian also had no idea that the Jiangnan West Road and Fujian Road were also controlled by the Qilin Army, so that the entire Jiangnan region would be left with this Jinghu South Road.

And it's also the surrounded Hunan Road.

How to choose?

After Li Chu promised various conditions, the two finally chose to join the Qilin Army.

Now that Jiangnan has become a general trend, no one can stop it, this Hunan Road is still the last stop, and the opportunity to resist has long passed.

With the surrender of the two feudal officials of Hunan Road, this Jinghu South Road was also under the jurisdiction of the Qilin Army.

Jiangning Mansion!

After returning to Jiangning Mansion, Li Chu customized a large map of Song, Jin, Liao, Western Xia, and Tubo.

Shi Tianyi sat steadily and watched.

Li Chu picked up a red watercolor pen and drew from the easternmost part of the map.

First of all, Tongzhou!

The first stroke of this watercolor pen is in the north of Tongzhou, Fengma River, which used to be a horse farm in the south of the Great Song Dynasty in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and now the horse farm is long gone, only this river remains, and this river is also the state boundary of Tongzhou.

The first stroke is to draw the state boundary between Tongzhou and Huainan East Road along this river, and then arrive at the Yangtze River, and then turn the brush along the Yangtze River all the way to the west, to Yangzhong area, and then through Dantu County, through Jiangning Mansion, and then turn to Taipingzhou, Tongling, Chizhou, along the Yangtze River to the west to paint, and finally to Hanyang in Hubei and stop.

In Hanyang, it began to go north, no longer along the Yangtze River, but along the boundary of Hubei Road, all the way up, into Jingnan Road, and then along Jingnan South Road up into Ruzhou, including Rufen Town, Xiangcheng County, here made a big turn, and then go southwest, and then back to the boundary line of Jingnan South Road, including Junzhou, Changzhou, then turn back to the boundary of Hubei Road, and then go south along the boundary line of Hunan Road, and finally arrive at Guangnan West Road, and then go west along the boundary line of the north of Guangnan West Road. The boundary between the Song Dynasty and Dali was drawn, and then along the border line south, and then to the border between the Li Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty.

The Ly Dynasty, that is, the Vietnam of later generations.

Finally, the line stops at the mouth of the Gulf of Tonkin at the sea.

The area drawn by this red line encompasses half of the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

The area within this line is the area that the Qilin Army actually controls now!

Li Chu took out the territory map of the Southern Song Dynasty and compared it with this.

The area controlled by the Qilin Army today is only a quarter less than the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty!

In other words, the area under its control now occupies three-quarters of the Southern Song Dynasty in the later generations!

Li Chu's heart also became ambitious with this map.

Up to now, he has traveled to the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it has been a year!

In a year's time, the Qilin Army is now famous, controlling half of the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty!

The plan to control Jiangnan has also been achieved!

Now the entire Jiangnan is actually controlled by the Qilin Army!

"Sir, how is this picture?"

Li Chu picked up this map that outlined the territory of the Qilin Army and unfolded it for Shi Tianyi to see.

Looking at the control range of the Qilin Army outlined by the red line above, Shi Tianyi was also quite embarrassed.

Who would have thought that Li Chu, who rebelled in Xiangcheng County in the past, would control most of the territory of the Great Song Dynasty in just one year? Who would have imagined that the drunken and gambling junior brother of the former Rufen Town could become the prince of the dominant side today?

territory, although controlled.

However, there are still many problems in people's livelihood.

After that, Li Chu talked with Shi Tianyi about how Jiangnan should be governed, and talked about it late at night.

In the early morning of the second day, Li Chu issued an order to recruit the original Han Zhao, Han Wen and his son, and Chen Ji and his son to come to Jiangnan, and appointed Han Zhao as the deputy transfer envoy of Liangzhejiang Road, and appointed Chen Ji as the deputy transfer envoy of Jiangnan West Road.

And Chen Anren and others, although they have the official position of a positive envoy, they actually do not control their power and reputation, they are just a name.

The railway from Jiangning to Hangzhou has also been built.

The opening time has also been set, and two days later is an auspicious day, and an opening ceremony can be carried out.

The railway plan from Hangzhou to Jiangnan West Road has also been launched, and a lot of displaced people have been recruited to participate in the work, and the foundation has been laid here, waiting for the railway to transport it.

And the railroad on the other side of Rufen Town has also been built.

Directly from Rufen Town to Fancheng County.

Due to the need to build a bridge to Yangyang, the bridge has not yet been built.

Two days later, Li Chu personally attended the opening ceremony of the Nanjing-Hangzhou Railway.

As the first train to run in the Great Song Dynasty, Li Chu gave it a name, called 'Jiangnan'.

The Jiangnan is composed of two locomotives in the front and rear, and the middle carriage is 25 air-conditioned carriages.

The color of the train was also painted white and blue.

It is also the style of later generations.

This time, the opening ceremony of the Nanjing-Hangzhou Railway invited famous taxis from the Jiangning area to participate, and at the same time, Li Chu, the transfer envoy of the Huainan East-West Road, also invited them this time and directly picked them up by Black Hawk helicopter.

Before the railway starts, the first is the celebration of the completion of the Jiangning Railway Station.

On this day, Xuanwu Lake was crowded with people.

There were people everywhere who came to watch and watch the excitement, and Li Chu placed a large number of Qilin troops here to maintain order, and at the same time to protect the scholars and celebrities who came from all walks of life to participate.

In front of the Jiangning Railway Station, Li Chu held a grand opening ceremony here, inviting many famous prostitutes and singers to come over to sing and dance.

After a lot of jubilation, it was time to enter the train station.

Until the first train opened, the train station was temporarily closed to the public.

This so-called opening means that people who have not purchased a train ticket are not allowed to enter the train station for the time being.

The main reason is that there are too many people here, if you directly pour into the train station at one time, the order of the entire train station will definitely be messed up, and they don't take the train, just for curiosity, which will make the crowding in the train station even bigger.

You can visit, you can come whenever you want after the opening of the car.

In this opening ceremony, three trains were opened.

The first is the Jiangnan, this is an air-conditioned car, this car is temporarily closed to the public, and the people who can board this train today are all celebrities invited by the Qilin Army or people who have made great contributions to Jiangning Mansion and the railway station.

This is followed by two non-air-conditioned cars, which are the kind of green cars that later generations.

However, the body color of this green car has also been repainted, unified in white and red, and the seats inside have also been replaced with more comfortable hard seats.

The inside looks clean and pleasing to the eye.

This kind of non-air-conditioned car is sold to the outside world, as long as the person who buys the ticket can board the train and take the train to Hangzhou.

It's just that as soon as this ticket was released, it was immediately snatched up.

ps: Regarding the territorial scope of the Qilin Army in this chapter, I posted a picture in the book friend group, which is the map of the territory of the Qilin Army sketched by Li Chu. (To be continued.) )
